Endometriosis In Transgender Men Is Still Poorly Understood

Did you know?
Even in the 21st Century, the medical field still doesn’t know much about transgender men’s health – especially when it comes to Endometriosis.

“Transgender men assigned female at birth but identifying as male
often find themselves navigating a healthcare system that fails to
adequately address their specific needs. Endometriosis, primarily
viewed as a “women’s issue”, is a prime example of this oversight.
By recognizing and studying endometriosis in transgender men,
we can dismantle the binary understanding of this condition and
pave the way for more inclusive healthcare practices.”
-Alexandre Vallée, Anis Feki, Jean-Marc Ayoubi
